I moved into my new host family as well! They're really nice, and although I can't see the ocean anymore, I really like my new host house. I'm much closer the mountains, and it's much quicker to get home in this new house.
I spend more time above-ground as well. I know that sounds weird, but when you spend hours on the subway everyday, you kinda forget what a beautiful city you live in. Now I take mainly buses, and one of my most frequented bus stops is across the street from the biggest department store in the world which is another plus. Definitely a big change from the midwestern rural-ness I'd been accustomed to for so long!
Moving also makes it so clear that time is passing so quickly! It seems like just yesterday when I was getting settled into my first host house!! It makes me realise all the more how much I need to make the most of what time I have left.
